GigE Vision® Device Package
High-speed image data transfer compliant with GigE Vision standard
The GigE Vision Device Package is an IP packagefor the transfer of image data complying with GigE Vision standard. The IP transmits image data from the image sensor to Gigabit Ethernet in real time. Users can build highly reliable products making use of its high-speed transfer capability and high-precision time synchronization.
GigE Vision is optimized for high-resolution, high-reliable machine vision cameras, medical imaging systems, and other applications that demand maximized Gigabit Ethernet performance.
